Algorithmic Screening for Liver Cirrhosis
An algorithm that helps predict the risk of developing liver cirrhosis through a blood test.
The non-invasive tests available today suffer from low accuracy making them suboptimal for screening the general population. A more accurate screening methodology is needed to direct high-risk individuals to clinical follow-ups. Nationwide EHR presents an opportunity to identify such patients and pave the way to earlier cirrhosis diagnosis.

One of the obstacles in drug development for NASH/NAFLD is late diagnosis. This technology/method would help identify the relevant sub-population that could most benefit from it.
